  • evermists

    fingernail tracing moon shadows
    cast on your pale, white thigh
    wondering why we must ever
    only embrace this way in mists

  • scarlet tears, dry rain

    acceptance creeps
    it was never this lot
    to be, longing & only

    i see

    i see

    i see

    a flash of steel in
    the full of bleak moon's
    pale face fading
    behind stormcloud doubt
    an imposter waiting

    scarlet tears, dry rain

  • for the best

    we ford streams under
    between rime and rust
    between night and dusk
    running red at golden fall
    drawing our arctic under
    crone days stained pale
    unbroken strides between
    ash, birch and thorn

    checking maps, we see we
    have lost the trail
    and that, my friends,
    might be for the best

  • back to sit

    standing stones

    somewhere along the path
    i somehow lost my way
    that was what
    old craggy guy
    was trying to say, just
    get back to the sit...
    an expert leading
    by example

  • gone dust weary

    having gone dust weary
    abandoned and wander
    she took her hand
    in her hand and said
    to herself she was sorry
    dry rot and wormed
    greywood splinted there
    at the edge and waiting
    fiftyfive steps from the
    line cutting old growth
    from pale sky feathered
    wondering should he
    come back to her again
